NBC picking up the Locke/Ben show

Hey, remember Lost, everyone? Who wants to hear news about Lost? You all love Lost, don't you?

Wait, don't walk away yet! Okay, yes, we probably talked a bit too much about that last season of Lost given how (in retrospect) it, to put it delicately, sucked and was horrible (even though one of us kind of liked the ending).

But seriously, this might actually be kind of cool: according to a report, NBC has picked up a pilot that will star the two actual good actors from the Island show, Michael Emerson and Terry O'Quinn. In recent weeks, J. J. Abrams climbed on board as a producer, which no doubt helped the cause a bit. The show will be called Odd Jobs; no word if Terry O'Quinn's original description of the show's premise (back when nobody was really sure how serious he was about the idea) as centering around two hitmen living in suburbia has survived to this point.
